Option 1 : Autism

Disability is an umbrella term, covering impairments, activity limitations, and participation restrictions. Overcoming the difficulties faced by people with disabilities requires interventions to remove environmental and social barriers.

Autism:

  • Autism Spectrum Disorder is one of the kinds of intellectual disability that means a neuro-developmental condition typically appearing in the first three years of life that significantly affects a person’s ability to communicate, understand relationships and relate to others, and is frequently associated with unusual or stereotypical rituals or behavior.
  • Children with autism spectrum disorder experience profound difficulties in relating to other people.
  • They are unable to initiate social behavior and seem unresponsive to other people’s feelings. They are unable to share experiences or emotions with others.
  • It is characterized by widespread impairments in social interaction and communication skills, and stereotyped patterns of behaviors, interests, and activities.

Thus, it is concluded that Autism causes challenges in ‘social communication’.

Hint 

  • Locomotor disability is a disability of the bones, joints, or muscles that leads to substantial restriction of the movement of the limbs or a usual form of cerebral palsy.
  • Dyscalculia is a mathematical disability. In this disability, the learner has difficulty in learning or comprehending mathematics. For example, learners with dyscalculia may: have trouble in counting, have trouble in arranging things in order or sequence, etc.
  • Dysgraphia is that type of intellectual disability that impacts the writing abilities of learners. Children will have difficulty in writing their ideas in well-structured form and in thinking and writing at the same time.
